Peter,

This IS a gnome list!
"Orca E-mail List" <orca-list@gnome.org>,

That email is your monthly reminder, including your password in case you forget it.

You will receive one every month from gnome.org on the first day of the month.

February 1 was yesterday, so you received that email and you will receive one again in March 1.

Peace to all,

Hello Orca list,

this is a warning. I just received this reminder message because I recently posted to the orca-list.

Without my knowledge, I have been subscribed to the gnome.org mailing list and it displays my Email list, the orca-list and the password used.

Just posting to the orca-list has resulted in my password being made public.

It seems that the gnome.org server does not encrypt passwords. Has this happened to others?


The original message is below and I have replaced my password with 'xxxxxxxx'.

Peter


-------- Original Message --------

Subject:	gnome.org mailing list memberships reminder
Date:	Fri, 01 Feb 2013 05:00:24 +0000
From:	mailman-owner gnome org
To:	ptesar ca inter net

This is a reminder, sent out once a month, about your gnome.org
mailing list memberships.  It includes your subscription info and how
to use it to change it or unsubscribe from a list.

You can visit the URLs to change your membership status or
configuration, including unsubscribing, setting digest-style delivery
or disabling delivery altogether (e.g., for a vacation), and so on.

In addition to the URL interfaces, you can also use email to make such
changes.  For more info, send a message to the '-request' address of
the list (for example, mailman-request gnome org) containing just the
word 'help' in the message body, and an email message will be sent to
you with instructions.

If you have questions, problems, comments, etc, send them to
mailman-owner gnome org.  Thanks!
